Lovers love for love alone, not for any reason
Making time for making love in any day or season.
Others may have filled their dreams
in times when they were younger,
Now they find their dreams are changed,
wrapped sweetly round the others’.
Pleasure comes from seeing her,
no matter what she’s wearing,
Whether staid or rather frayed,
or bright and bold and daring,
And for her the thought of him sends her mind to reeling,
Scary thoughts, control all lost, in waves of tender feeling.
Friends don’t know what they see smiling at each other,
Wonder why they still try, why they even bother.
Just a few, one or two, know the joy that’s in them,
Know they love for love alone, not for any reason.
